Several months ago when I was looking for a job I offered my services replying to a hiring thread email address. They never replied.
I live in SF, have 5+ years of iOS experience and worked at a chat company making their iOS chat interface for the last 4 years of it.
It came with a TN visa condition, but I doubt that is the reason why. TN visas have no waiting period, are pretty much a rubber stamp and $3000 in lawyer fees.
Startups are really bad about this. I'm 1 for 4 on getting replies from YC companies recently. One is leaving me hanging after a full day coding project + an interview that (I think!) went really well.
Just gotta keep trying. It's a numbers game.
Having been on the other side of the equation and been bad about keeping tabs on applicants in addition to my normal duties, I can't help but feel it's somewhat karma-related, too. :) In small companies, I figure it's generally due to not having people dedicated to sourcing/hiring so things just get overlooked.
